Were You in a Rideshare Accident? Get a Free Legal Case Review

If you were injured as a passenger, driver, pedestrian, or another motorist in a crash involving an Uber or Lyft vehicle, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Rideshare companies carry up to $1 million in liability coverage when their drivers are actively on a trip, but recovering that money often requires fighting through layers of insurance carriers and corporate legal teams. A free case review can help you understand who is responsible and what your claim may be worth.

You typically qualify if the accident happened while a rideshare driver was logged into the app, on the way to pick up a passenger, or actively transporting one. Passengers struck by an Uber or Lyft, cyclists, and pedestrians may also have valid claims. There is no upfront cost, and reviewing your situation does not obligate you to file.

Do You Qualify?

You may be eligible for compensation if any of the following apply to your situation:

  • You were a passenger in an Uber or Lyft and the vehicle was involved in a crash.
  • You were struck by a rideshare driver while walking, biking, or driving another vehicle.
  • You were a rideshare driver hit by another motorist while logged into the app or on a trip.
  • You suffered injuries that required medical treatment, hospitalization, or time off work.
  • The accident happened within the past one to four years (depending on your state's deadline).

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sue Uber or Lyft directly after an accident?

It depends on the driver's status at the time of the crash. If the driver was logged into the app and on a trip or en route to a passenger, Uber and Lyft typically carry $1 million liability coverage. An attorney can review the timeline and determine the right defendant.

How much does a rideshare accident lawyer cost?

Most rideshare accident attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and only owe a fee if they recover compensation for you. Case reviews are free and confidential.

How long do I have to file a rideshare accident claim?

Statutes of limitation vary by state, but most allow between one and four years from the date of the accident. Acting quickly preserves evidence like app data, dashcam footage, and witness statements.
